2006 Dodge Magnum - RT RWD

Pros: tons of leg room

Cons: would be nice to have moe interior lights

Advice: test drive it, you'll buy it

The Hemi is a must. Very comfortable. People have stopped and taken pictures of it. Finger prints on the windows all the time from people checking out the car. Navigation system made it possible to throw away all my maps. Once you sign up for the Sirius service, you can also listen to it on your computer for free. The people in the back seat can have their choice of watching a DVD, listening to CD's, Am, FM or Sirius. My husband is tall, so the electronic pedals are wonderful. We cannot wait to use the heated seats in the winter.

2005 Dodge Magnum - SE RWD

Pros: REAR WHEEL DRIVE

Cons: STOCK TIRES

Advice: GET THE HEMI!!!

OVERALL, THE ABILITY TO GO SIDEWAYS IS ENOUGH! AFTER YEARS OF FWD CARS I HAVE FOUND ONE THAT PERFORMS LIKE MY 1969 DART GT. DONUTS ANYONE?

2005 Dodge Magnum - SE RWD

Pros: The leg room

Cons: The factory stereo

Advice: If you have kids, get leather seats!

The pull to the right that everyones talking about was a concern at first, but I guess either it went away or I got used to it. Nothing beats the room in this car. I'm a tall guy with tall friends and we fit great in the front and back seats. When I'm with my family, we have plenty of room. Trunk space is great, but if you install an aftermarket system, make sure you get a smaller sub for custom enclosures if you want to save trunk space. Also, make sure the installer's can reprogram your computer if you get a remote start feature on your alarm. Ultimately one of the best cars I've had.

2005 Dodge Magnum - SE RWD

Pros: Navigation system

Cons: cruise control operation

Advice: Ask lots of questions about the gtransmission

I have owned my MagnumRT since Jan '05, and the transmission has left me stranded twice. I have never had a car do that with 10,000 miles.
Other than trans., great car.

2005 Dodge Magnum - SE RWD

The car ran and handled superbly with the six. The transmission exhibited a harsh downshift from second to first which caused the 'service engine' light to come on. A second car didn't exhibit same problem. Cruise control is in there somewhere!!! Overall fit and finish excellent.
A first-class effort by Dodge.
